As for the bug story, my old house used to get centipedes - God those
things just give me the willies, I hate them! *shiver* Anyway, I'm
in the basement, held captive by one, here comes Tyrone. I'm
standing there in bare feet, the last thing I want is for this creepy
crawly to actually touch my skin. Tyrone doesn't see it, I'm hopping
around telling him to "kill it, kill it, kill it" and he's totally
oblivious. I think I found something to finally drop on the thing.

ROFL! I am the same way about those huge water bugs. One was walking
towards me when I was in the bathtub... I leaped (naked and dripping water)
about 4 feet over it and ran to the other room. Went to the kitchen and
grabbed some bug spray and chased the damn thing all around the toilet,
spraying like mad.

Persia wasn't with me then. She likes to eat them. Grosses me out, but
what the heck

I can't deal with those things. They are just too damn big. IMO,
they are pushing the insect boundary. I can't deal with the SQUISH.
UUUUUGH, I shudder just thinking about them.

Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal
claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.

It's so funny... I can call Persia to pounce on, play with or otherwise
bother any little bug that gets in my house. Last night I was in the
bathroom and saw a silverfish in the bathtub. "PERSIA! Come here!" She
came running. Meow? I tapped the tub. She jumped up, saw the bug...
got
into the tub and started batting it around. They stand no chance with
her
on guard. Gotta love the kitty-bug-alarm!

It's interesting that she comes when you call at all. A lot of them
don't or they have mastered that selective-hearing thing. Stinky
always comes unless he is in a deep sleep, always cutely chirping. He
expects food or love.

Vino comes when I call him for stuff like that. Bugs, lizards or other cats
outside. I think he can tell if my voice sounds excited and then he comes.
But if I just call him to come sit by me on the couch or something when he's
otherwise occupied, all I get is the ear-swivel and nothing more.

Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered
in fur!

It's horrifying.

Apropos, I saw a National Geographic program last night about
mongooses (mongeese?) and they were eating (along with everything
else) some really enormous beetles, practically the size of Buicks.
They seemed to make a substantial meal.

Hey, back to eating bugs again.
